Sure he is not a very good defender, doesn't shoot threes and his plus/minus is concerning, but I view what the Spurs did as a positive to get the best players on the floor, not to hide someone.
I think they are clearly trying to limit the damage on defense. For a guy that used to be a great athlet his lateral quickness is really bad. He defends the easiest perimeter matchup. Most of the time that´s a modern day PF like Crowder, O´Neal, Kleber or even DFS.
